Glad to see people enjoying it

To post in blackened out, do full text reply, and use the black highlight tool, I am interested to know how you found the final boss okay, I died about 50 times on him, and about 50 times throughout the rest of the game

 

lol yea he pissed me off too :P

Ok, it is now updated.  I did a search in google for the answer, and then found one place where someone posted how to (I did my own twist on it).  I tried it a few times and went, "You gotta be kidding me!", but then got it to work.  Check the original post as I put it in there.  One has to be fast with their trigger finger is all I can say.

Thanks.  I am biased and can be very opinionated (but try to own up to it).  And, I am definitely more pro-XBox 360 than anything else.  However, I believe in giving credit where credit is due, and believe people will see things differently (and I want people to make the right choice FOR THEM).  And, people who saw my posts before saw I had been firing back on the hype, and asking people to justify it.  So, this post happened to end up being my retrospect on things.  Again, I do hope people do see I am biased and adjust accordingly to what I say to fit their view of the world.  I think this is part of the reason why also I get in defense of Resistance 2.  I see excessive hate its way which had me wondering why.    

By the way, on a personal level, I have a bias for Gears of War 2 as my game of choice on the 3D shooter realm.  I believe Halo 3 doesn't look that good either, and kinda like it (love the world), but believe it had been overhyped (still acknowledge as king of the console FPS).  Also, I value good bots being in games, and don't care about coop mode.

 



Nice review. Definatly one of the best FPS out there and Rico is a mother******

Two words for Rico: Anger Management.  I think, however, he is may be looking at two other words, however (blackened to prevent arguments of spoiler): Court Martial.

Fanboy nonsense, you haven't been critical at all. Not in the slightest. You've just answered the critical points with defensive remarks to make the game look better. You haven't agreed with a singla negative remark and even twist the negative into a positive.

Are we supposed to take this seriously?

Me with fanboy nonsense?  Are you serious?  Please check out my other posts regarding Killzone 2.  I have been critical of the game, or more like critical of the buzz about the game.  If you don't know what I have written, you wouldn't know it.  Anyone want to chime in here and argue how I have been a fanboy?  I had been harsh about it.  But what can I say?  The main knock I have with the game is that I wasn't able to bring up aim assist (it can use it).  That's right, that is my main knock on it.  I pointed out other criticisms of the game, and why I don't think they matter.  I did mention them though, if you read my comments.

I wouldn't sweat it. I certainly never got the impression that you were a fanboy, let alone a PS3 fanboy.

The poster who 'called you out' has a relative short history of condescending remarks, implicating people as children and is often needlessly confrontational. I wouldn't take much of what (s)he says with much weight.

OT: Good, fair review. I however really disliked many more aspects of the game. Although I haven't played it much (only when I'm at a friend's house), my biggest complaint, other than no local story co-op, is how slow it felt. It reminded me too much of Gears of War, which in my opinion isn't a good thing. I prefer my shooters to be a bit more arcade-y.

I do agree with you on several points though. Both the story and the atmosphere were pretty interesting and the graphics/style really aided in realizing that world. And I can't say that at any time I really felt... short, either.

edit -Oh and I loved the inclusion of bots! One of my favourite features of Timesplitters.



Why not in Sony discussion?

Meh, fair points made.

Killzone 2 is a game, so I put it in the Gaming Discussions category.  If I were to discuss Sony itself, and its sales, then I would comment more.

In regards to more detail comments, I will look to add more as they pop into my mind, good or bad.  Like I found the pistol seemed a bit overpowered, or the other weapons (minus lightning gun) a bit underpowered.  Minor quibbles here.  I am at a place that anything else here is more of a preference than anything else.
